You can purchase florescent oil dye. Clean as much of the existing oil off the engine as you can. Then put in the dye. Drive for awhile and using a blacklight you can trace the leak to its source. | |

Beyond that, you're just going to have to start taking parts off until you can find the source of the leak. I'm not able to see much from your photos other than this car is a rusty mess. | |
